What is the future of panel applets?
A lot of them (all?) failed to build in the ongoing mass rebuild, so I

any plans to make gnome-panel obsolete the orphaned applets?
I know that GNOME 3 is a big step ahead, but frankly speaking I'm a
little worried about the massive impact on other packages / desktops /
maintainers on the one hand and the lack of communication on the other.
Can you please provide the maintainers more info in order to reduce the
fallout we currently see in rawhide?

Also, where has the functionality they provide gone? I don't see
equivalent functions in gnome shell. (Maybe I need to look harder?)
